Our name is about honesty. The Monitor is owned by The Christian Science Church, and we’ve always been transparent about that.
The Church publishes the Monitor because it sees good journalism as vital to progress in the world. Since 1908, we’ve aimed “to injure no man, but to bless all mankind,” as our founder, Mary Baker Eddy, put it.
Here, you’ll find award-winning journalism not driven by commercial influences – a news organization that takes seriously its mission to uplift the world by seeking solutions and finding reasons for credible hope.

Looking for a classic horror story to curl up with this Halloween? Check out one of these H.P. Lovecraft gems.
After Edward Pickman Derby marries Asenath Waite, his best friend Daniel Upton notices a change in him. This tale about swapping one’s consciousness into another body is a recurring theme in Lovecraft’s work. The slow realization of Upton that his friend – who is behaving strangely – may not be his friend at all is chilling. This tale has ties to "The Shadow Over Innsmouth," as Asenath comes from that haunted town and has fish-like features.
